 It doesn't help as I said earlier. Here is another time I quote
documentation:

# If NO_REFERER_HEADER is TRUE, Referer headers never will be sent in
# transmissions to servers.  Lynx normally sends the URL of the document
# from which the link was derived, but not for startfile URLs, 'g'oto
# URLs, 'j'ump shortcuts, bookmark file links, history list links, or
# URLs that include the content from form submissions with method GET.

 This means lynx won't ever send referer for "URLs that include the content
from form submissions with method GET".
